That is a great looking pond there.  How many gallons is that bad boy?  Do you have any issues with greenwater in the summer? 
9 out of 10 voices in my head told me to do it.

Thanks guys!  

AnnArborBuck,

It is about 5000 gallons.  Ponders call the green water "Pea Soup".  I never had it, just like an aquarium you need to test for problems.  Also with a heavily planted pond and good bio filtration you should not get Pea Soup.  Water changes are easy my grass loves them. lol
